Auto Week 6 - No stretch

started grow question 5y ago
I start to think that she will never stretch :( Why? Just bad luck? Can't be the light, so I believe she don't liked the LST? Thanks !

Looking at your diary, she stretched during week 3 and 4, so there'll be no more stretching now.

I know too much stretch isn't good, but here i have like almost 0 stretch, and so, not a lot of buds. She had hot temp, she had lot of light... I'm confused.

Should I defoliate?
I've been growing this plant for more a bit more than 3 weeks and it's growing very bushy and not tall. I was wondering if there's anything I can do to help get it to grow more tall. Maybe take off a few leafs? I don't know it's my first time growing lol. Any help is appreciated!

What happens to my autos ? Too much fertilizer ? Nutrient block ?
First week I tried the devil and fertilized my autos as little as possible, knowing it was useless... Big mistake. After that I could see signs of too much fertilizer, i.e. pointed leaves and since then, slow growth with very small leaves. What has happened? Photo at 5 weeks.

Willing doming this stunted plant help it recover from its early trauma? I have attached photos of progress from the past 2 weeks
This journal has become an experiment in the resilience of this plant. When it was 2 days old I water and washed the germinated seed out of the peat pod, and have been trying to allow it to recover at its own pace which it has been, but is very stunted and behind it sisters.

Special Queen from RQS growing in an unusual pattern
This plant suffered stress from heat on week 1, so its growth was delayed from the other plants. By week 4, its height was about half of the others. She also split its branches (twice!) and is growing in a very different pattern than the others. Does anyone know the reason why?

Growing problem
My last 6 plants (different strain and ferti) grow up slowly and with less foliage. Even in pre flower the plants stretch while I do LST, then at the 2nd flowering week they drastically stop stretching, is it normal? Every strain is having the same result approx 15g for plant

Defoliate?
I would like to ask experts, considering how short and small these 2 plants are (41 and 47cm) and that they have just one main cola and almost no lateral branches, is it worth to remove some fan leaves? This is 4th week of flowering. Peace and Thanks 😎

How much light for a stunned seedling?
If my seedling is stunned, how much light in watts should I give to her? Does it make sense to give minimum light to help recover after over-feeding? (in my case 11w all spectrum bulb). I mean to help her to focus on recovery, not on reserving energy

Low plant LST - possibly stunted
Does anyone have any opinions regarding the LST being that low? PAR is around 635 with a DLI of 46 at the tallest cola. pH is quite constant between 6.2-6.5 with very little nutrients given so far.

Does she look healthy? I just did FIM. She looks pretty fine for me, but leaves' colour is not even or uniform. Somewhere is dark green, and some is light. Old leaves have some yellow spots, but I guess it was water drops' burn I'm growing for fun btw, don't take so serious

Early Flowering/ Slow Growth
Should I be concerned that my plant has started early flowering but is still so short? I know this strain is supposed to grow to around 27", but it still seems fairly small for white pistils to be growing at 5 locations on the plant already.
